NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers remains in free agency, but another team may have opened up a potential opportunity for him after Derek Carr’s 2025 season could be in jeopardy due to a shoulder injury. The New Orleans Saints are reportedly reaching out to Rodgers as they seek a veteran option at the position.
According to reports, surgery is an option for Carr, which “threatens his availability for this season.” This news has led to speculation that the Saints may try to sign Rodgers to fill the void. While the Steelers and Giants were also considered frontrunners, both have signed other quarterbacks this offseason, making them less likely options.
The Saints are now in a prime position to make a move, with Rodgers potentially available at a reasonable price. However, the team’s quarterback depth is uncertain, with Spencer Rattler struggling in his limited starts last season. The Saints’ first-round pick from last year, J.J. McCarthy, will start the season as their quarterback.
With one year left on Carr’s deal and the potential for Rodgers to sign a long-term contract, this could be an opportunity for the Saints to build around a veteran quarterback and potentially move up in the draft to select another top prospect.
